Home Manager
I started my career in care in 1980, working in a busy elderly care unit in Watford Hospital. I loved this position and decided to go and complete my nurse training. I qualified in 1984 and continued back in the same unit as a nurse.
I then spent some years in different departments of the hospital. After having my family and working for 10 years as a Wound Care Rep. I found my way back into the NHS and eventually became senior sister in a rehabilitation unit.
